I think John Lille should get a mention jsut for his incredible memory, he can do all 32 Beethoven sonatas, chopin etudes and 30 concertos from memory, then he has another 30 concertos which he knows but may need to brush up on before a performance

9. Dichter
Perhaps you had a better experience with him than I did.  I couldn't put Dichter in a list alongside such names as Argerich, Ashkenazy, Brendel, Pollini, Kocsis, etc.

How has this thread got this far without anyone mentioning Radu Lupu? I would also like to suggest Eliso Virsaladze, Peter Donohoe and Ronald Stevenson - the last may not be performing any more but he's very much still alive!
